Plant Care Instructions:
- Light: Sanchezia Nobilis prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct sunlight but thrives best in filtered light conditions. If growing indoors, place it near a window with filtered light.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. During winter, reduce watering slightly as the plant's growth slows down.
- Humidity: This plant enjoys high humidity. Regular misting or placing a humidity tray near the plant can help maintain optimal moisture levels.
- Temperature: Sanchezia Nobilis thrives in temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect it from drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.
- Fertilization: Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter.
Common Problems and Solutions:
- Yellowing Leaves: This can be a sign of overwatering or poor drainage. Ensure the pot has proper drainage and adjust the watering frequency. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again.
- Pest Infestations: Watch for pests such as spider mites and aphids. Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil, and ensure good air circulation around the plant.
- Leaf Drop: Sudden leaf drop can occur due to changes in environmental conditions or stress. Maintain consistent watering, avoid drafts, and ensure the plant receives adequate light and humidity.
